Hello Rachel, Would you please explain how the MV12 anonymized person detection software works to detect a person or tell a person from other objects? I could not find the information in the article. Pointing me to an article is fine as well. Thank you. Karl

I see it as more of an issue with distance from a switch. Wireless can extend your reach to an area that is over 100m and has power readily available (not different than an AP in mesh mode).

I'm late to this thread - but thank you @jared_f! You might play around with the Apple Classroom app on your iOS devices - it's free and works outside of Apple School Manager. The latest versions support something Apple calls "unmanaged classrooms" - basically the ability create a class and have devices (even those without the classroom app) join via bluetooth. This could be really cool for trainings or presentations - if you or your users find themselves needing to lead people through content or apps on ipads!

Hi Tim, Did the 1:1 Nat with private addresses work for you? I am currently testing a couple MX's in our MPLS environment. So far it seems to be working well, I'm a little skeptical if it is the correct approach.

(data protection laws limit the amount of hours recorded anyway). in case i am right, that the chip can do 1080p, please enable that as an option! SteveM wrote: Wireless Option w/WEP/WPA/WPA2 Encryption well, we need power anyway. using PoE we have power and network. but i agree, sometimes it would be nice to avoid the network cable. not sure if the MV21/71 has a usb bus internally. if yes, then meraki could think about attaching WLAN to MV like attaching LTE to MX (usb-stick). SteveM wrote: Zoom video on playback should be possible. i'd love to see a 360 hi-res cam and pan/tilt like on youtube 360 videos (there is no zoom in youtube, but i am sure it can be implemented). SteveM wrote: Off Camera Storage to Cloud - Enough to handle 90 days. well, using motion based retention, you can almost achive 90days without offloading the video. there is great advantage to keep all securely on the cam (bandwidth, data protection) (except for the case the cam is stolen or physically destroyed - recording gone without offload). i think it can be done technically with the existing hardware: just stream the video to a given IP/port in a defined protocol (like an IP cam) another NVR can read (in addition to local recording). SteveM wrote: Two-way Audio has been answered some place else here. can't be done with the existing hardware (MV21/71) and is highly critical in regard to the data protection laws in some countries. in case it is implemented in a HW revision, please make sure the microphone can be turned off! audio output would create some really intresting possabilities. SteveM wrote: Motion Detection Alerts to Cell Phone or popup on Dashboard - (highly sensitive areas) please implement! i've requested that from the first day on :-) since the release of MV analytics, i know it can be done (and is practically there already). i'd prefere an email notification rather then a phone call.
